MUZU announce chart widget
By CMU Editorial | Published on Thursday 28 October 2010
Music video service MUZU has announced a new partnership with the Official Charts Company which involves a new widget carrying the latest singles chart in video form which anyone can place on their website, meaning website owners can have an automatically updating chart feature on their sites.
The widget, called the ‘video lightbox’ by MUZU, plays clicked-on videos in an overlay screen, so users aren’t taken away from the host website. And the website hosting the chart can earn a revenue share on advertising also serviced.
MUZU co-founder Mark French told CMU: “We’re really excited about the launch of our partnership with The Official Charts. The new widget is a simple solution for any website to present the best of the Official Charts music videos, together with access to MUZU’s full catalogue of over 80,000 videos and the chance to earn additional revenue streams”.
While the Chart Company’s Business Development Manager Luke Whalley added: “Our new partnership with MUZU enables us to strengthen our consumer offering with high quality video content, whilst expanding the reach of the Official Charts across new and existing online publishers”.
